[LG Refrigerator] - Reverse doors of a Bottom Freezer model

[@WyckinaZ]

Bought an LG Fridge at the end of 2023 and the manual did not have this information. I am happy that the official youtube does have the instructions how to change the door orientation. The video itself is of great quality. The instructions are clear, concise and easy to follow. The video itself should not be hidden. Either added to the manual, or official LG page, or somewhere else to be easier to find.

[@LGSAE]

Thank you for the compliment and you are right. However, in some countries LG has different service procedures and wants to have this procedure done by a professional, because things can still go wrong , for example the guiding of the wires through the hinge is a meticulous job. Nevertheless we try to make this as transparent as possible.

[@BrianP44]

@@LGSAE In the UK the instructions state "this must be done by LG appointed engineer otherwise the door will not be covered by the warranty". This is not stated on the John Lewis site, only that the work can be carried out by them before delivery..........for £35.

[@TheOeioeioeioei]

Can't understand why people are so grateful for this video. This information should be provided in the manual, not hidden on KZbin. Especially since companies that sell those fridges simply stopped offering the service to change the hinges on the doors, blaming COVID-19 and lack of personnel.

[@LGSAE]

Thanks for your feedback. The door reversal is indeed something that could be put in the owners manual. And it is up to the retailer to offer a service such as door reversal.

[@HotChook]

That’s enough social media for today, Karen

[@donaldmk]

@@LGSAE Or at least a QR code pointing to this video. It helped me a lot and I thank you for it, but was very dificult to find it, no mention in the paper manual and in the online help it says that you may lose you door warranty if you do it youself and nothing else.

[@user-by8wb5gc3p]

I found a plastic pry invaluable - used the one from an iPhone repair kit I have. You will need hex sockets 10mm and 6mm and a 5mm hex bolt key. You likely need to order a mini ratchet set if you don't have one. Also, to pry the top freezer mount from the door I used a wood chisel with a flat side and a bevelled side - worked MUCH more easily than the screwdriver example given here and I think if done carefully will cause less plastic damage too. My fridge was identical without the harness. The difference when you take the top of the door apart is you dont need to undo two screws - it all comes away with a plastic pry only, with the pieces being removed in the same order. Thanks LG Europe - you have been MUCH more helpful than the UK who want us to pay someone a fortune for doing this job which is extremely straight forward with instructions and the right tools.

[@celineos8639]

and which should be provided by LG or the retailler as part of your purchase anyway ...

[@jasonthrasher]

It worked! Thanks for posting this video, as it would have taken me hours to figure this out otherwise. For those making the switch - I used: 10mm socket to remove the top door bolts 6mm socket to flip the top pivot pin 5mm allen key for the middle and lower pivot brackets large phillips screwdriver old credit card as a pry tool I used my finger to scrape some of the grease from the lower pivot pin to apply to the replacement pin.

[@LGSAE]

Thanks for the additional feedback and tips Jason.

[@ray4669]

Im about to try this tomorrow - do i need to go out and buy a new hinge piece and wire piece as shown at 0:07? Or were those parts you took out of your fridge and re-used? Cheers!

[@josephking6515]

Hi Jason and *THANK YOU* (that was a big thank you) for listing what size tools were needed. I was unable to ascertain what the two screwdrivers were; square drive or slot/flathead and the bigger one may have been a Phillips, Torx, Hex but with my eyes I couldn't make it out. A real shame that LG were unable to list them instead of using a low quality out of focus 720p video image that looked like it was added to the video. I sincerely hope you have a good fridge and it runs trouble free for a very long time since it no longer has a warranty since the doors were not changed by an authorised/preferred service provider. One would think that a warranty warning would have been the first thing displayed at the beginning of the video.

[@whitesplash4056]

When I first saw there was no information like this in the manual I got very frustaded, as one of the most important features for me when I bought it was to be able to switch doors. But this super helpful video saved my day, just what I was looking for. As someone already mentioned there should be a link or QR code in the manual to this video.

[@LGSAE]

Until recent, LG policy was to have this done by SVC engineers. Latest manuals do include a guideline. We like your QR code suggestion and will forward it to development.

[@TheHunsonAbadeer]

@@LGSAE I've purchased a 2022 LG Fridge and both the manual and online guide state that my warranty will be void if I swap the doors myself. No one has yet provided me with certified LG technician contact info

Great to have clear guides to do simple jobs like this created by LG and not have to rely on third parties! 🙂

Glad you like it! If you have other video suggestions, feel free to post a them. :-)

Thank you, excellent video, many companies could take a few lessons from you !! Clear, concise, detailed and great quality.

[@LGSAE]

Thank you, much appreciated!

[@Ostap1974]

Very nice and useful video. Not sure, why the instructions were not included with the documentation. Some info that might be useful for future viewers: - My model did not have the screws as shown @1:33 Prying the panel upwards was sufficient. - Do not try to lift up the plastic as shown @7:12 Instead use pliers, grab from the metal extrusion and pull directly upwards.

Thank you! Спасибо! Очень доходчиво показано. GBB72PZEFN - комплект для перевешивания двери входит в поставку. Из инструмента понадобился ключ на 10, биты HEX5 и PH2. Да, и ещё пластиковая "поддёвочка" для работы с пластмассовыми защёлками. За всё про всё полчаса.

Remember when the USA had good service and these companies would do this for you upon delivery, so you wouldn’t be screwed doing it yourself? What a concept!

[@andrewmorrison2019]

I appreciated this being online. Clearly and easily presented. Thanks

[@narrowgaugeuk]

I used this video to reverse the doors on an LG GBB72PZEFN, which is slightly different to the model demonstrated. It can be done by one person, the doors aren't as heavy as they look, but two people would be better. (In the UK, it is misleading to say that the doors are reversable without pointing out that a further purchase is required.)

[@LGSAE]

Thank you for using the video. When purchasing the appliance, the bottom bracket should be supplied. Which "further purchase" are you referring to?

[@celineos8639]

@@LGSAE the further purchase is the hinge and also paying for the preferred service provider to do the job so you don't void your warranty (as stated in the manual). That's why there are not instructions in the manual on how to change the doors.

[@denes44]

@@celineos8639 You don't need to purchase the hinge, it is included with the fridge. In case you throw it out, you need to purchase it again, but that's your fault, not LG's.

[@josephking6515]

@@celineos8639 *WHAT?* I am helping an old friend change her doors so I haven't read her manual about the warranty being voided if the change is not done by an Authorised/preferred Service Provider. I would imagine she will not have understood that the warranty would be null and void as like all legal stuff it will be obfuscated in their usual mumbo jumbo fine print. It looks like LG are or have descended to the bottom of the pile with all the rest of the get out of -jail- warranty free legal trickery. Their products used to be really quite good. *Thank You* for bringing the warranty voiding to my attention. I am most appreciative of this and will pass it on to my pensioner friend. 👍

[@bellevue7841]

​@josephking6515 the warranty voided by the DIY door reversal is only to do with any issues regarding the door reversal. If done correctly there should be no issues. Now if someone starts the door reversal and finds it too difficult and then have to call out an Enginner, OR they misaligned the doors and the doors don't seal properly and then have to call an engineer, this is when someone will have to pay an engineer to fix the issue, that is not covered by the 24 month warranty. Basically and rightly so, they won't cover damage done by a person who shouldn't have attempted something beyond their measure. A qualified engineer who comes out to check for example the compressor and sees the door reversed correctly and there's no sealing issues etc... the warranty is still covered.

[@CherieApplemoor]

Thank you. We used this as a guide on our LG GB455PL model and it was very helpful. It was lucky that no one was paying us by the hour but we did it.

[@LGSAE]

Dear Cherie, thank you for your comment and glad to read that it helped.

[@firstnamelastname7476]

i have GB455PL.. please let me know if you needed a special bottom-hinge for reversing (as the vid shows)? I think on this model you can reuse the original hinge? thank you

What a great video and instructions! Thank you. This is very clear. I think I need to get the tools from someone before attempting it. But it's good to have this option to chagne your door over if needed. 😃

[@LGSAE]

Thank you for the positive feedback. And enjoy your LG refrigerator.

[@susanc4911]

Thank you for the excellent video. What I don’t understand is why the parts weren’t included with my purchase. Our LG LRBNC1104S didn’t require us to disconnect any wires. The parts I purchased: AEH75596702 hinge assy (low left hinge) and MEG65719402 cord holder (covers left hinge) Off topic: My fridge took over a month to deliver and was delivered without a box (said he left it in the truck for easier transport in the elevator) and a small factory sticker hid a small dent. Which I didn’t see until after I agreed all was good. I wrote to the LG for delivery info so I can file a complaint and received no response. What I’ve learned: you must use Jet dry or your dishes will be wet after the cycle. To use each * functions you must press and hold the function you want to use down for 3 second and once all the functions are selected then press start. What I did wrong: was holding the start for 3 seconds. Hope this was helpful.

[@LGSAE]

Thanks for your comments, noted and to be included. As for the parts, it depends per country if supplied or not.

The plastic part 10:32 is impossible to get on. When i first get it on, the door pushes the plastic upwards as i close and open the door. Makes a weird sound. What should i do? You dont really see how you do it in the video.

[@LGSAE]

Dear, thank you for your comment. Please make sure the harness isn't too long, as it could bend (which could cause the sound you refer to) and guiding the harness behind the protrusions inside the cap. When putting the cap up, you should hear a click. Good luck!

[@marttivainio7893]

Should this apply for LG GBP31SWLZN? I can't get the fridge door lifted off after opening the 2 top bolts holding the hinge in place in 2:30.

[@LGSAE]

This seems to be a model with an internal display at that location, right? The procedure should be similar. Can you gently pull the fridge door towards you? Note that after taking out the bolts, the hinge is still hooked into the chassis, so wiggle it a little. The hinge must be getting loose from the chassis.

[@DigitalNabokjerring]

Super video and very helpful, but you could have included some info in the user manual. For example a link to this youtube video.

[@LGSAE]

Thanks for the tip!

[@DonceA]

They added different sentence to they manual :) "Only qualified service personnel from LG Electronics service centre should disassemble, repair, or modify the appliance. Contact an LG Electronics customer information centre if you move and install the appliance in a different location." "Reversing the doors must be performed by the qualified personnel of LG Electronics. If not, the doors will not be covered by the warranty" This is from LG Fridge&Freezer owner's manual. So, even if you want to move your fridge to different corner you need to call LG Electronics service centre. :) So here are no talk about reversing doors by yourself or you may loose your warranty. Next fun sentence: "To remove frost from the appliance, contact an LG Electronics customer information centre." Do I need to call customer center to remove frost from inside of freezer?

[@kennethparmley8421]

5d d ed e÷ew.

[@celineos8639]

To do it properly you have to pay the LG service provider - this is not made clear in any of the specifications on the LG websites and the retailers website, and you can spend as I did hours on the ph trying to get someone to have the decency to acknowledge that this information should be provided up front. Basically, you are not told which side the doors are hinged on and you cannot request a fridge with the doors aligned the way you need them to be. And then if you are in your 80s and living alone, you have to pay $200 to change the doors. And LG does not seem to realise that paying that additional amount should not be required of the customer who has specifically researched to find a fridge on which the doors can be reveresed. LG should indicate clearly that an additional amount will need to be paid to change the doors without voiding the warranty.

[@sebastian3649]

The plastic cover at 10:45 does not fit perfectly with the cable inside when i try to turn the door and creats some noise.

Then check it carefully please. Does it ouch anything when turning? Are the wires guided properly? Are there washers aroung that area that come in contact with the cover?

I've just got a LG-GBM22HSADH fridge freezer. The door reversal is startightforward until you get to the bottom hinge. A) it's not clear that the hinge is reversible B) there are no pre drilled bold holes on the underside as there are on the side where the door currently sits. The vendor - Hughes, who have been useless, advised contacting you. Please can you help? Thanks.

[@LGSAE]

First, apologies for the late reply, we monitor these comments but not on daily basis. You are absolutely right, door reversal on the GBM models is indeed a bit different from the model presented in the video. Please take into consideration that you only require the supplied accesories. Since there is no bottom hinge in the package, this should give an indication that the current one can be reversed (unlike the 1 shown in this video). Actually the holes ARE pre-drilled, but it may seem they are not as there is a small bit of PUR in there. Just reverse the bottom bracket and the holes that it covers, you can turn in the leg at that point (it may require you to put some force when turning it in.) Let us know how it worked out please by replying to this post.

Do you know of any additional clips/screws that I need to remove for this model?

Not really but because it has in integrated display you should indeed be carefull and perhaps look for an owners manul via your local LG support office, where door reversal instructions should be provided.

I hope you managed to figure it out in the end, but for anyone else with the same model as you and me: there's no other screws, it'll come off with some careful wriggling. I think there's some clips on the left and right. I didn't have a plastic prying tool, so I used a credit card instead. It's a great video even if the fridge is slightly different. Just be sure to follow all the steps, don't be like me and miss the parts on the bottom of the doors that need to be moved as well... which I didn't realize until putting the entire fridge back together.

After changing the door opening in a Model GBB 72MCDMN refrigerator, the distance of the door from the body of the refrigerator on the upper side is 10 mm, while on the lower side it is 14 mm, this is within the permissible limits. If not, what could be wrong? Thank you

I'm not sure which distance you've measured. Does the door seal close the door well? We always advise to reverse the door seal 180 degrees after changing door direction, especially when you have been using it for a while.

Hi there, as with a few other people, I'm having problems with the fridge door seemingly being higher than it should be - I've tightened and readjusted everything and still can't get it down, which means when I put the plastic cover on the top hinge, it won't go on properly. I also have a seal that's compressed too much, and it doesn't seal the fridge door?

[@LGSAE]

Thanks for sharing. depending on your model it might be the middle hinge, is it level (before putting on the door)? As for the seal, please take it off completely, rotate it 180 degrees and put it back on, then the sealing will be as it was. At the hinge side there is always a bit more compression, so when you reverse the door it will automatically be a bit more compressed that side, so rotate it with the door opening should solve this.

[@ilyafilru]

It says in the manual that if you flip the doors yourself they will not be covered by warranty.

[@Marsd30]

Hi, Thanks for the video. What is the part number for the reverse door hinge for the bottom??

[@LGSAE]

Please consult your local LG support office, as part numbers may vary depending on the exact model.

[@Marsd30]

Thanks for that. I figured it out myself.

[@Epic_SS]

@@Marsd30 Hi - How did you find the part number - LG Australia is no help at all

[@Marsd30]

@@Epic_SS Turns out I didn't need a part. Everything was included in the original door hardware

hello we have just purchased a LG LG GBB61wjzn lg refrigrator refrigrator and it was delivered today. We are waiting for a few hours to plug it in but we are not able to open the refrigrator or freezer doors. Do we have to plug it in first?

[@LGSAE]

Nope, it should open normally, however sometimes there is tape used to hold the doors.

Hi, I reversed my fridge’s door yesterday and followed exactly every steps from this vdo. Apparently after reversing, the upper door isn’t aligned properly. It seems to tilt more to the upper left corner which I assume it affects the suction of the door when it’s close as the door suction doesn’t feel as strong as before reversion. Please advise, I really couldn’t figure out how to adjust the door alignment. Also, the bottom door isn’t seal properly. Do I also need to reverse the seal of the bottom door so it close properly? Thank you very much.

[@LGSAE]

Thanks for your feedback. It is advised to reverse the seal of both the freezer AND the fridge door. If this does not solve the problems with the suction please contact your local LG support channels.

[@pariyaae]

@@LGSAE Thank you for your reply. I will try reverse the seals first and see if it’s better.

[@RandomDude-us2zh]

Thank you for a very helpful video that made me realize that I should call an expert 😂

[@ray4669]

Im about to try this tomorrow - do i need to go out and buy a new hinge piece and wire piece as shown at 0:07? Or were those parts you took out of your fridge and re-used? Cheers!

[@LGSAE]

apologies for the late reply. No, this should be included in the product package, same as the bottom hinge for reverse opening.

[@nathanweekes8425]

Awesome video! Easy as to understand!

[@LGSAE]

Thanks Nathan

[@quercophilia]

After completing all steps and placing the upper door on the hinge pin, and attaching the upper hinge, the door is slightly misaligned as it now is shifted a little left leaving 1/4" of the fridge body exposed on the right. Is there any way to adjust the alignment of the door?

[@LGSAE]

normally that should not happen. ensure the center hinge is not off and the top hinge well bolted.

[@kstatman]

I am having the same problem

[@hanklermaimages9793]

Nice Video. Just wondering why you don't have instructions on flipping the leveling feet?

[@LGSAE]

Thank you. Well this video applies to most of the bottom freezer models sold in Europe. However, you are right that some models require you to swap the leveling feet as well, well noted!

[@yusepbcn]

This video saved my day!

Glad it helped you out!

[@michaelvassilopanagos4462]

Can i convert to built in my lg gbp61dspfn ? Is there build in door panels available as spare parts?

[@LGSAE]

no, these appliances are for "free standing", for built in you need a different construction

[@jonl1930]

Hello mate nice video , i have the LG GBP62DSNFN, i do everything as you describe but i cant put the last plastic cover top left side, it just doesnt fit.any advice?

[@LGSAE]

There should be a spare for the other side in the unit. depends on the models, some in the top cover, some in the bag with the lower hinge.

[@ilkkaoman9095]

Excellent video, now I deer to do the job myself..

[@LGSAE]

[@okosakaroklenni]

Thats a pity the additional aprts are not supplied with the fridge (like in the case ov every other brand) and you have to buy them separately.... This made sure my next fridge won't be LG.

[@LGSAE]

Actually all parts you need for reversal are supplied. In case you miss any part I would advise you to contact your local LG service center.

Super helpful video, thank you.

Ma gli accessori per permettere l’inversione quindi la cerniera e quant’altro, è fornito con il frigorifero o è materiale in dotazione ai soli tecnici LG? Cioè lo posso fare a casa da solo?

Excelente video. He podido invertir la puerta sin mayores problemas. Se debe tener cuidado con el cable en la zona de bisagra, esa parte no está muy clara en el video. Excellent video. I was able to reverse the door without problems. You must be careful with the cable in the top hinge zone, this part is not very clear in the video.

[@LGSAE]

Thanks.

[@ChristianSmileCh]

Video molto utile, ho appena invertito la porta. Se il costo fosse modesto cioè inferiore o uguale a 50 euro lo avrei fatto fare ad un centro assistenza, ma visto che è quasi il doppio, pari al risparmio che ho avuto nell'acquisto, l'ho fatto io. Un cash back per intervento di inversione porte sarebbe una bella idea.

Which separate video explains the additional step for fridges with an integrated display? Why not include a link to this in the above description?

Thank you for this information. I had no wiring harness on my GB-335wl model but all else matched up. was the same

that could be possible, yours has an internal display (searched and found it is an Australian model) We choose to use the external display unit to be as complete as possible

2:50 Why is this pin so difficult to remove. with poor tools, you can easily strip this.

Depends on the tool you use. Poor tools will indeed kill the pin, that is not our fault.

Which tool should be used for this pin?

@@LGSAE I would also very much like to know what tools to use for this pin since it's impossible to remove. I don't have poor tools but the size of the pin doesn't seem to be standard. I would be grateful if you'd put more specific tool requirements in the information below the video.

There are some differences and the user manual refers to qualified personnel to do this on your model, or warranty may be voided. I suggest you contact your local LG Customer support channels.
